[quote=Anonymous]I’m sorry, OP, I get it. I’m a single mom too and can’t stand food waste. My teenager also refuses to eat most leftovers. There are two separate issues to me- one is the environmental impact of wasting food, the other is the budgetary. It seems you’ve tried explaining the budget concerns with her and that doesn’t work. Would she listen to the environmental side of it? She needs consequences for wasting food, but I’m not sure exactly what that would be. Can you come up with a household budget and if she exceeds the food budget, take it out of somewhere that would hurt her, like cosmetics or clothing? [/quote]
